Chapter 242 You Zhengping's Reward Character
Youheng is a native of Pingyuan County, Qingzhou. When he was young, he moved to Jingzhou with his family to avoid the military disaster in Qingzhou. At the same time, You Heng was accepted as a disciple by Mr. Sima Hui, a contemporary famous scholar. Sima Hui is proficient in three teachings and nine streams, and is a well-known miscellaneous family in modern times.
Originally, Liu Biao, the person in charge of Jingzhou, wanted to hand over Jingzhou School to Sima Hui for management, but Sima Hui hated the nepotism in reality, so he set up a college in Bailu Mountain, Changsha County, and enrolled students independently. Therefore, the talented You Heng became the first batch of students of Egret Academy.
Sima Hui recruits disciples, and does not bow to money and dignitaries at all. He only looks at the talent and character of students. Of course, if you come from a noble background and other conditions can be seen by Sima Hui, then you need to pay an astronomical tuition fee. How can Egret College survive and operate without money?
After ten years of cultivation in the Egret Academy, you Heng has obtained the true biography of Sima Hui. Sima Hui said to his disciples more than once, "In the world, whether it is reading or practicing martial arts, it is a process of self-cultivation and a channel for a perfect personality... You should be your true self, which is the goal of your life." Those who learn from me will live, and those who learn from me will die! ..."
Due to Sima Hui's innovative teaching philosophy, the ten years of your growth have been very free. During this period, Sima Hui accepted Pang Tong, Zhuge Liang and other talents as disciples. When Sima Hui heard that Cao Cao had received Emperor Xian from Xu Chang, and then issued a recruitment order, he ordered You Heng to come to Xu Chang to seek a way to serve the country.
Sima Hui's move also asked You Heng to come to Cao Cao's side to explore the way and test Cao Cao Cao's bottom line with the arrogant and tame You Heng. If Cao Cao can tolerate the arrogant and unruly Qi Heng, it shows that Cao Cao is really eager for talents. In this way, many of his students have a way to go and have a wise master...
The highest level of loyalty to the country, perfection, and the pursuit of life is the connotation quality that a person must be determined to pursue and adhere to in his life. The glory of his ancestors and senior officials are just a sideline to a person's success, not a person's ultimate ultimate pursuit and destination. You can't confuse means and purposes. This is the quality that Sima Hui's disciples must have.
As a teacher and getting along with You Heng for ten years, Sima Hui naturally knows the shortcomings and advantages of You Heng: The advantage of You Heng is that he has a very good memory, never forgets it, is good at writing articles, and good at debate. The disadvantage is that his bad temper seems to be born, impatient, arrogant, grotesque, and often swearing. Of course, this is your attitude when facing the dark side of society. Because there are too many dark sides in troubled times, his temper and talent are directly proportional to the development and progress.
In Sima Hui's opinion: If Cao Cao can tolerate the impatient, arrogant and grotesque You Heng, it means that Cao Cao really has the elegance of people. He really cares about the talent of people, not the backer of his origin and power. At the same time, he sent You Heng to Xuchang, and also wanted you to experience more things and see some scenes, so as to increase your own talent... Based on all aspects of consideration, Sima Hui sent his proud disciple to Xu Chang to explore Cao Cao's reality.
Living in the mountains and forests for a long time, You Heng's physique is strong and his feet are very good. In just a month, he walked from Changsha to Xuchang alone. At this time, Cao Cao was leading a large army to besiege Xuzhou City, and Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and others presided over Xu Chang's government affairs and daily management.
Since Cao Cao issued a recruitment order to the world in the name of Emperor Xian, the world's talents and mediocre talents have gathered from all directions.
After these people arrived in Xuchang, they lived in the "Recruitment Hall" built by the government. The food and accommodation of the recruitment hall is temporarily free. As long as one person moves in, the expenses incurred from the first day to the person's departure will be recorded on the person's head. If this person is finally hired by the government, these expenses need to be deducted from his salary. If this person comes to fish in troubled waters, then, I'm sorry, this person must go to corvée and go to voluntary labor without compensation. Until the labor done can offset these debts.
This is stipulated by Chen Qun. Xu Chang, if you don't feed the idle people, "If you are idle, don't come to the wise, and if you bribe, don't come to the wise!" Those who come are not afraid!"
However, Chen Qun was not in Xuchang at this time, but followed Cao Cao's army to besiege Xuzhou.
As night falls, the lights are on. You Heng walked into Xuchang City and dragged the long shadow to the recruitment hall. At this time, he walked into the third recruitment hall, and the first two were already overcrowded. In the warm hospitality of the officials of the recruitment hall, Neheng learned that the hall was also overcrowded.
At this time, you don't want to go to the fourth museum anymore. Because he is very hungry and tired at this time.
"Master, can Xiaosheng make up all night in the stable?" You Heng asked the official pleadingly.
"This..." The official frowned slightly when he heard the words. As far as he knows, at this time, most officials in Xuchang are busy collecting strategic materials and sending them to the battlefield. Due to the decrease in the number of officials who evaluate talents, the speed of the talents who come to take the examination has slowed down. At the same time, more and more talents are flocking, which makes the recruitment hall in Xuchang City overcrowded.
Before, the young talents he met heard that there were no vacant rooms in the recruitment hall, so these people turned around and left one by one and went to the normally operated inn in the city to find accommodation. And this young man is not ordinary! How can you put down your dignity and beg yourself to sleep in the stable?! From this point of view, this young talent does not have the vanity of ordinary young people.
The official looked at the young man in front of him and said politely, "If the prince does not dislike the fishy smell of the stable, of course, the prince can condescend to rest for a night!"
"Oh, that's so good! Thank you for opening up!" You Heng bowed down to express his gratitude.
"Ha ha, son, you are the first young man I have ever seen who doesn't pay attention to accommodation! This is an excellent quality! Mr. Son, please follow me..." The official saw that Youheng was so polite, so he smiled and praised him, and then he personally took Youheng to the stable.
Because the recruitment hall is overcrowded, the whole stable is also full of horses, and there is only open space near the forage pile. Seeing such a warm scene, even if it was just a small open space, wearing thin clothes, he could no longer control his body and began to tremble.
The official saw that you Heng was in such a difficult situation. Without saying a word, he turned around and left the stable. When the official appeared again, he had already carried quilts and pillows for you. At that moment, You Heng was moved by the enthusiastic behavior of the officials: there are still many good people in the world. A foreigner met such a warm-hearted person in a foreign country, and his identity was still an official... You Heng felt very warm.
After that, the official asked Neheng for his name and where he came from. In front of You Heng, the officials recorded this information in a notebook. Although Youheng is famous in Changsha County, Jingzhou, and has a certain reputation in bragging with life, the boundary of Gunzhou is as inconspicuous as dust.
After the official left the stable, Neheng soon fell asleep. The next morning, many well-conditioned taxis came to pick up horses to take the exam. When they saw You Heng sleeping in the forage pile, most people's eyes were disdainful.
The children in the mountain forest like to sleep naked. You Heng sensed the malice of these people and deliberately exposed their lower body. As a result, this situation came in exchange for more spitting: "Crazy!", "Madman"... Hearing the abuse, Neheng just looked at them contemptuously.
Therefore, because of Youheng's naked-sleeping habit, everyone did not see Youheng's talent, and Neheng's "Madman" nickname was widely known in the recruitment hall. In the future, most of them will stare at You Heng with strange eyes, and only a few people will pay attention to him with sympathetic eyes.
That is, some officials and attendants of the recruitment hall can't help covering their noses when they see You Heng. You Heng knew that when he slept in the stable, he was already stained with a strong smell of horses.
Shit, the fishy smell of ordinary horses, riders are not afraid of smelling, why are they afraid of the same smell on their own bodies? Aren't people as good as horses? ...Youheng feels unfair.
However, the experience in the next few days not only made him feel unfair, but also made him sigh: It's really as dark as a crow in the world. Cao Cao's jurisdiction is also hanging sheep's head and selling dog meat. Xu Changcheng is also in vain. According to your experience, he concluded that it is impossible to be hired without giving gifts or money to the auditor. Even if the talents who take the exam are talented and outstanding...
You Heng looked at the sad expressions of most of the cold men and listened to their complaints. He did not enter the threshold of the assessment hall, but resolutely turned around and left. While eating in the recruitment hall where I stayed, some poor people gathered together and whispered while eating.
